Hiram Bowman Of Winchester, O.,
thought that his woodpile was dimin-
ishing too fast. So he took five sticks
of wood, bored holes in them, loaded
each with a big charge of powder,
and plugged the holes tightly. Then
he replaced them on his woodpile,
locked the wood shed, and awaited
developments. They came. As the
family Of Cary Peters, a colored
neighbor of Mr.. Bowman, was eating
breakfast a tremendous explosion
took place. 4 large cooking stove
in the kitchen was blown to atoms,
and pots, skillets and stove lids flew
in every direction Lizzie, the
eight-year-old child Of Peters, was
struck by piece Of the stove and
knocked down and received terri
bic cash across her forehead. The
carpet took fire from the hot ashes
thrown from the stove, but was ex-
tinguished before any serious dam
age was done. Peters threatens to
sue Mr.. Bowman for $4,000 dam
ages.
